ABOUT Rain-E-Days

Peter Day is a self-taught artist, sculpturer, engineer and welder working under the name of Rain-E-Days.

Having combined a career in design, and engineering in the rail sector, with his passion of working with metal he has developed his skill to create sculptural pieces for outdoor display. His art has a contemporary feel influenced by his experiences, nature, and contemplative view of the world around him to create pieces that has introspective twist on how we interact with others around us and our inner self.

Based in Sudbury, in the heart of Gainsborough and Constable countryside, and working out of his studio, Peter’s medium is predominantly mild steel, but he introduces stone, glass and wood to enhance or support the pieces. All his works are finished to either delay or prevent the natural oxidization process depending on the piece but often uses this natural process to enhance his work and achieve innovative finishes. Peter enjoys creating his own pieces and works closely with clients determine how best to display the pieces in their chosen location.

Commissions 

Thank you for visiting the Rain-E-Days website. Although I offer a range of sculptures and garden accessories and continue to add to the collection, I am always happy to adapt or design one-off pieces based on the client’s specifications or ideas.

We’re always on the lookout for new ideas. Tell us what you would love in your garden, and we’ll help you make it happen.

Our standard procedure with commissions is to provide an approximate quote and take a non-returnable deposit before the commencement of the sculpture. This deposit varies depending on the type of sculpture commissioned, but will be between 25% and 50% of the quoted price. The final amount is payable before delivery.
